“HELBO is an integral part of surgical protocols in our multi-specialised OPUS DENTAL SPECIALITIES clinic. Since we mainly use immediate implants and restorations in our practice, HELBO’s antibacterial photodynamic therapy provides me with assurance of a predictable result based on infection control. However, we also use it extensively for all other applications, such as the treatment of peri-implantitis, endodontic lesions, dry alveoli and periodontal infections. We consider it to be an extremely useful complementary treatment protocol.”

„HELBO is a decisive factor in oral implantology: the mandatory, non-invasive step in my workflow. It improves precision, promotes healing, minimises discomfort and reduces postoperative complications. It’s all about doing the best you can. Extremely recommendable.”

„Immediate implantation with immediate loading becomes more predictable thanks to HELBO therapy, especially in infected alveoli.”

“As a global ambassador for SKY fast & fixed immediate restorations in the digital workflow, I can guarantee my patients temporary restorations in just one day. This also means that the tissue is preserved and stabilised and that we can achieve high-quality soft tissue aesthetics. However, in order to maintain a success rate above 99%, it is crucial to avoid common bacterial complications. HELBO aPDT gives me this assurance: the therapy allows me to offer this affordable implant option to more patients and reliably saves me from corrective procedures during recall, especially when teeth susceptible to periodontitis need to be extracted.”

“I consistently use HELBO therapy as a primary treatment after subgingival instrumentation in patients with peri-implant mucositis. The results are very satisfactory: the clinical signs of inflammation subside very quickly and irreversible peri-implantitis can be avoided when patients are educated on oral health. “

“I was very relieved when I finally found a valuable treatment option for many of my chronic stomatology patients with the HELBO system, especially for patients with drug-refractory oral lichen planus, burning mouth syndrome, or oral mucositis. 
HELBO’s dual aPDT and photobiomodulation therapy not only combats pain and inflammation symptoms, but also supports the healing of oral lesions without side effects—a real game changer! Unsurprisingly, 660 nm low-level laser therapy is also recommended internationally by MASCC/ISOO for the prevention of severe oral mucositis in patients undergoing head and neck oncotherapy.”

“As an opinion leader in laser dentistry and a long-term user, I regard the HELBO system as my trusted assistant whenever I am worried about complications with inflammation and wound healing. I combine the use of several laser devices in my daily practice,, but scientific findings on aPDT and photobiomodulation show that HELBO is the best choice and always provides me with reliable results. Moreover, it is a highly user-friendly device that is easy to implement and use anywhere, even when working outside the practice.”

“Rethinking our anti-microbial approach is crucial in this day and age. In endodontics, this is particularly important when access to hidden anatomical structures is limited, such as those in microsurgical retrograde endodontic treatments. The HELBO system provides you with a great tool for this.”

“With our studies, we were able to prove that immediate implants placed in post-extraction alveoli with periodontal infection exhibit significantly better bone quality and quantity if they were previously treated with HELBO aPDT than with a purely mechanical treatment.
Even in aggressive periodontal cases, we were able to scientifically prove very positive effects in terms of clinical signs of inflammation and pocket depths. Microbiological analysis also showed a significant decrease in the number of pathogenic bacteria.”

“HELBO therapy has become a crucial step in my decontamination protocol for biofilm-contaminated implants in the surgical treatment of peri-implantitis. The initial medium-term results of my study show a lasting clinical benefit for the peri-implant bone level, which has remained stable after 5 years of surgical regeneration therapy.”

„ HELBO is an invaluable tool that I use in almost all areas of dentistry when decontamination and optimised working conditions are required to improve oral health. For instance, HELBO helps with my surgical regenerative treatments for peri-implantitis because it delivers long-term clinical benefits.
In a controlled study, I found that adjuvant HELBO treatment led to more stable clinical parameters and a reduction in peri-implant inflammatory markers. A small, risk-free effort with great benefits, especially when you consider that these positive effects last for at least four years.”

“A reliable anti-microbial treatment for many years, photodynamics has become firmly established among available laser applications and therefore also used in our clinic. Given the global problem of antibiotic resistance, the use of antibiotics as an adjunct treatment should be limited to strict indications. In many cases, photodynamic therapy offers a local anti-microbial alternative which studies have shown to improve conventional treatment methods.”

“Our practice has been successfully treating patients with the HELBO laser for over 18 years! The range of indications is diverse, and the laser class of the HELBO device allows it to be delegated to trained personnel. Our doctors primarily use the HELBO laser in surgery, while my prophylaxis colleagues and I use it on our Perio-patients. As a convinced user, I am always delighted with the patient response and the great clinical results. Effectiveness without pain and without side effects — that’s what pleases everyone! “

“aPDT HELBO therapy has been an elementary part of the various treatment processes in our practice for more than 20 years. aPDT enjoys excellent success as an adjunctive therapy not only for its main indications of periodontology, implantology and oral surgery, but also in the field of endodontics and mucous membrane conditions such as mouth ulcers, herpes and fungi, thus achieving high patient satisfaction.”

“Drug-associated bone necrosis and now COVID-19-associated wound healing disorders are stressful complications for patients and challenging for practitioners. The therapy aims to provide the fastest possible healing or reliable plastic wound closure. Anti-microbial photodynamic HELBO therapy in combination with HELBO soft laser therapy can prevent the complications mentioned above in advance or be used later as adjuvant therapy. The sterile components in the HELBO system are approved in the field of surgery and, in my opinion, also a crucial requirement.”

“For me, this has been the most successful form of therapy for periodontitis and peri-implantitis for over 20 years. Considering the increasing resistance to antibiotics worldwide, aPDT is one of the most tissue-friendly treatments for all ages and has no contraindications. Easy to use for any dental hygienist.”

“High-quality, microscope-assisted endodontics is a key pillar for long-term tooth preservation in our practice. Besides careful preparation and filling with a tight cap, disinfection with HELBO is an important intermediate step for successful treatment which we cannot and do not want to do without.”

“For 20 years, HELBO therapy has been an absolute must for me in implantology and oral surgery. HELBO helps me prevent complications during immediate implantations and augmentations, especially in high-risk patients. Peri-implantitis therapy without aPDT is inconceivable in our practice.”

“The risk of resistance is clearly present with systemic antibiotics, which are still routinely used in periodontal care. This makes diseased teeth and implants increasingly difficult to heal and retain. Locally applied measures are helpful, like HELBO therapy, for example: data shows that this type of therapy is just as effective as local antibiotics. The great advantage in my view is that it is free from side effects and resistance problems.”

“At our clinic, surgical procedures are routinely performed with the assistance of HELBO – we simply don’t have time for complications, especially with immediate implantations.”
